Do I love you or am I just too afraid to leave?
Am I being honest or am I being what you need?
Is there something waiting out there for us at the finish line?
Can I have a second just to recollect my mind?

Wait, I thought I saw my own face in the mirror
But it was your ugly mug, I can go back to being

Paranoid, paranoid
Everything and everyone’s out to get me
Nobody is helping and nobody should let me be
Paranoid, paranoid

Is it worth it in the end if I'm this far from home?
Is it worth it in the end if I'm still this alone?
I don’t know if there’s a way to practice empathy
Without letting all the demons in to talk to me

Wait, I wanna give this life all that I have in me
But I just need a break from being so goddamn fucking paranoid

Paranoid
Everything and everyone’s out to get me
Nobody is helping and nobody should let me be
Paranoid, paranoid

Wait, I thought I saw my own face in the mirror
But it was your ugly mug; I can go back to being
Wait, I wanna give this life all that I have in me
But I just need a break from being so goddamn fucking paranoid

Paranoid
Everything and everyone’s out to get me
Nobody is helping and nobody should let me be
Paranoid, paranoid
